A Matter Of Detail

A king was noted for his possessive nature. He stamped every book in his library as every cattle that grazed in his palace grounds was branded. One day the king was passing young prince’s playroom; and he stepped on a piece of toy and fell hard. The king was scarred on account of his accident. While he got up with a bad bruise on his head his son said innocently,” My hobby- horse has left his mark. It now owns the king.”
The king got angry but considering his son’s tender age he merely checked himself and went off.
